Lyrics in Pinyin/Mandarin/English of “Three Inches of Heaven”
tíng zài zhè lǐ bú gǎn zǒu xià qù
停 在 这 里 不 敢 走 下 去
Stopped here, afraid to continue on
ràng bēi shāng wú fǎ shàng yǎn
让 悲 伤 无 法 上 演
Let sorrow be unable to appear
xià yī yè nǐ qīn shǒu xiě shàng de lí bié
下 一 页 你 亲 手 写 上 的 离 别
On the next page, your handwritten departure
yóu bú dé wǒ jù jué
由 不 得 我 拒 绝
It’s beyond my control to refuse
zhè tiáo lù wǒ men zǒu dé tài cōng máng
这 条 路 我 们 走 得 太 匆 忙
We’ve been walking this road too hurriedly
yōng bào zhe bìng bú zhēn shí de yù wàng
拥 抱 着 并 不 真 实 的 欲 望
Embracing each other, isn’t really our true desire
lái bú jí děng bú jí huí tóu xīn shǎng
来 不 及 等 不 及 回 头 欣 赏
Too late, too impatient to look back in appreciation
mù lán xiāng zhē bú zhù shāng
木 兰 香 遮 不 住 伤
The fragrance of the magnolia can’t hide the pain
bú zài kàn tiān shàng tài yáng tòu guò yún cǎi de guāng
不 再 看 天 上 太 阳 透 过 云 彩 的 光
No longer looking at the sunlight shining through overcast skies
bú zài zhǎo yuē dìng le de tiān táng
不 再 找 约 定 了 的 天 堂
No longer looking for the promised heaven
bú zài tàn nǐ shuō guò de rén jiān shì shì wú cháng
不 再 叹 你 说 过 的 人 间 世 事 无 常
No longer thinking about those transient things between people that you talked abou
jiè bú dào de sān cùn rì guāng
借 不 到 的 三 寸 日 光
The three inches of sunlight that I can’t borrow
tíng zài zhè lǐ bú gǎn zǒu xià qù
停 在 这 里 不 敢 走 下 去
Stopped here, afraid to continue on
